I forgot this little painting from the images taken on Whidby Island this summer when the poppies were in bloom.

I'll be traveling back east on Wednesday to visit Ann's family and attend a reunion of my family in Ohio. We will be gone for 16 days so there will be no updates for awhile unless I can figure out how to post some drawings during the trip.....Thanks for following In Plein Air!

I took a break from my island series to paint the bees on the lavender just outside the studio doors. Leigh has done a great job landscaping the studio grounds and I often see her puttering in the garden. Arts in the Woods is coming up in November, the 13th, 14th and 15th here in Poulsbo......Don't miss the Knowles studio!....and the many other fine studios and talented artists on the tour......for more info check the Cultural Arts Foundation website..

Okay, last watercolor for awhile........This was done from one of the images taken while I was plein air painting on location..........I kept waiting for a clear shot without people in it and couldn't get one........but I think the figure adds interest with the cast shadow...
